Really, German government even failed to see any security threat in Kaspersky Antivirus on computers of public servicemen, and it is literally a backdoor for the Russian secret services.

How is this different from using an OS that sends the names of the files you have accessed to a foreign country if you don't use its enterprise version or have misconfigured it? A situation that is true throughout public services and across your entire country's industry.

Not quite sure what you're referring to. They also failed to replace MS products with open-source alternatives, because, you know, the icons are on the wrong places.

Well they managed to push thru GDPR, which has become an incredibly powerful tool for the elites and government bureaucracy over their people.
I think they've even weaponized it against certain archival websites, a brilliant but obvious move for control of the people. The U.S. has so far stymied attempts at government control and regulation of the internet through tools such as net neutrality, But I fear this is short lived, after all, "the children"..
